Hello, I filed an ITP (#920912) regarding a package I'm preparing. The upstream name for this package is "phat", which doesn't appear in the archives from jessie to the present day. After filing the ITP and uploading my package to mentors, I realized that there was an unrelated "phat" with a different upstream present in the archives from 2005 to 2014 [1]. It was removed from the archives because it was abandoned by upstream (#751276).
I understand that 3.3.2 of the policy mandates that I at least bump the epoch, but I wanted to ask the list to make sure: is reusing the source package name of an unrelated, long-removed package like this OK, or should I consider using a different name?
